Vaani Kapoor is set to sizzle like never before in Karan Malhotra’s mega action adventure Shamshera starring Ranbir Kapoor. Vaani will play the character of the most desirable and sought after travelling performer from heartland India, a seductive temptress wooed by men who wear hearts on their sleeves for her.

Vaani Kapoor opened up about the project for the first time saying, “It is a compliment that Karan (Malhotra) saw the potential in me to portray this character. Shamshera is a dream project and I feel blessed to have an opportunity to be a part of it and portray such a different and interesting character. As an actor, it is great to be working with a powerhouse of talent like Ranbir, an individual who I truly admire for his talent and whose movies I have always loved watching as an audience.”

Yash Raj Films’ larger-than-life entertainer will have jaw-dropping action sequences and Ranbir Kapoor in a never seen before avatar. Sanjay Dutt plays the merciless nemesis of Ranbir in the project.

Shamshera is set to go on floors end of this year and shooting will wrap by mid-2019.
